Push Me Pull Me: How We Experience Higher Dimensions

Sometimes I feel the strong radiance of the sun, or a beautiful performance, or just looking at the face of my wife and kids. I experience this radiance coming out of them, like it is pushing its way to me, and I bask in its outward rays.

I also experience an attraction in these same experiences. A desire to be closer, more connected in the experience. I experience this attraction as a pull, like they are pulling me towards them.

A push I get. A pull I get. A push and a pull at the same time? How can that be? Mustn’t it be coming in or going out, pushing or pulling?

Now, what if I try to make sense of this experience from my “normal” 3D or 4D world? In lower dimensions, I feel apart from the higher dimensions. They are not “here now” with me, in my four dimensions. They feel like something else, out there. I can see and touch the table in front of me or the face of my child. I experience being with them over time. Those other dimensions are not here right now in the same way.

Feeling separate from them, I feel the push from them and the pull to them.

And, when I simply sit in the higher-dimensional experience, I feel like a part of it–no push and no pull, rather one with. So, maybe I experience the push from something and the pull towards it when I bring only the lower dimensions of the experience into my awareness. When I bring the higher dimensions into my awareness, I feel at one with. Not apart, rather a part.
